A Bayesian Search for Planet Engulfment Signatures in Solar Analogs
Zimo Cheng, Sharon Xuesong Wang, Fan Liu +11
We present a systematic Bayesian search for chemical fingerprints of planet engulfment in 113 solar twins and analogs with high-precision abundance measurements, 45 of which host k…
The ASKAP-FLASH survey: A first look at the multiwavelength properties and redshift distribution of compact radio sources
W. Roster, E. M. Sadler, E. K. Mahony +15
We present the characterisation, including a photometric redshift (photo-) analysis, of the optical counterparts (CTPs) to over 45 000 bright ( 30 mJy) comp…
High-impact Scientific Software in Astronomy and its creators
Johannes Buchner
In the last decades, scientific software has graduated from a hidden side-product to a first-class member of the astrophysics literature. We aim to quantify the activity and impact…
Spin Constraints on 4U 1630-47 via combined Continuum Fitting and Reflection methods: a comparative study using Frequentist and Bayesian statistics
Debtroy Das, Honghui Liu, Zuobin Zhang +5
We present a comprehensive Bayesian spectral analysis of the black hole X-ray binary 4U 1630-47 during its 2022 outburst, using simultaneous NICER and NuSTAR observations. Using th…
Short-Period Small Planets with High Mutual Inclinations are more Common around Metal-Rich Stars
Xinyan Hua, Sharon Xuesong Wang, Dongsheng An +7
We present a correlation between the stellar metallicities and the mutual inclinations of multi-planet systems hosting short-period small planets (a/Rs<12, Rp<4Re). We analyzed 89…
An Intermediate Mass Black Hole Hidden Behind Thick Obscuration
Peter G. Boorman, Daniel Stern, Roberto J. Assef +12
Recent models suggest approximately half of all accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs; 10 M) are expected to undergo intense growth phase…
